This Is Not a Drill

Just Another Glorious Day in the Oilfield

About this book

He's back on the rigs and back in trouble. Picking up right where he left off, Paul Carter pulls out more tall tales of a mad, bad and dangerous life in the international oil trade. Starting with action and mayhem galore This Is Not A Drill sets an unrelenting pace that just doesn't let up, as Paul almost drowns when the Russian rig he's working on begins to capsize; is reunited with his Dad - another adrenaline junkie; gets married; hangs out with his rig pig buddies in exotic locations; gets hammered on vodka in Sakhalin; and spends a couple of interesting weeks in Afghanistan with some mates who run an outfit that just happens to contract out mercenaries for hire . . . This is the next fast, furious and very funny book from Paul Carter, the author of the best selling Don't Tell Mum I Work on the Rigs, She Thinks I'm a Piano Player in a Whorehouse.
